We are continually working hard to reduce crime and anti-social behaviour across Wigan borough, and generally make life hard for criminals.
Making neighbourhoods safer is a priority for us and the role of the Neighbourhood Policing Teams is key to achieving this.
One of my main aims is to make sure that you know who your local Neighbourhood Policing Team is and how you can contact them.
By telling us your concerns, whether it be vandalism or anti-social behaviour, we can work together to tackle the problems that affect your area.
Burglary continues to be one of our key concerns and we have a number of initiatives in place to target offenders and reduce the number of break-ins.
We are also delivering the Policing Pledge across the borough, giving people a clear minimum standard of service they can expect from their Neighbourhood Policing Teams.
We are asking residents for their input to ensure that the service is focused on the needs of local communities and addresses the issues that matter most to people.
